| | WE IN MULTIMEDIA are all Philco’s granchildren |
 | | By 1937, Philco was using an experimental 441-line television system which utilized a 12” television receiver—a direct, but bulky competitor to David Sarnoff’s RCA 12” set. |
 | | The name Philco is still going strong in South America, with manufacturing plants in two exotic and geographically opposite parts of the world: Manaus, Brazil, at the heart of the Amazon jungle, and at “the end of the world” in Ushuaia, Tierra del Fuego, Argentina. |
 | | In 1986, Philco and WCI are purchased by AB Electrolux of Sweden. |
